“If she was sitting next to me at a restaurant, I would never know.
That is a SUPERSTAR for you!

A true performer like Sammy Davis Jr. or Prince would have played for the 40 and brought the house down.

Dang, this site really does need a thumbs up feature!

She’s still around?

Just barely, I guess.

She's had troubles -- an accident, lawsuits, and the general problem of turning a teen act into an adult career.

An international tour probably wasn't a good idea for somebody who doesn't have much of a domestic following any more.

I notice that she has relatives in the business -- Ray J., Snoop Dogg. She probably should have built on that.

Prince used to have big stadium concerts, and then afterwards go to a small club across the street and have another concert for a small crowd, where he could experiment and work on getting new material down. This is Prince playing one of those small clubs after the main concert:

Just my Imagination

Sammy Davis Jr. grew up on Vaudeville stages. No Vaudeville performer would ever dump an audience, no matter how small.

There are plenty of struggling musicians who would be grateful for forty people willing to listen. She should have showed them more respect.

One name people are in big trouble if the public doesn’t ID that name.

Apparently, the crowd wanted Beer, not Brandy.

>>Who is ‘Brandy’?<<

From what I hear, she’s a fine girl. What a good wife she would make. But my life, my lover, my lady, is the sea.

40 people showed up. Had she any honor she might have put on a monster show for just those people.

Just imagine.

“Hey. Everyone. Come up here. Grab one of those folding chairs. Get close. Gather round, were gonna give the forty of you faithful a show like you have never seen...”

It could have been an opportunity.

True enough, Brandy is stuck in the 1990’s Amber, but her publicist did a poor job. This should never happen, to allow your talent to practice for months, go into debt, travel on 14 hour flights halfway around the world, and for what? Only to be publicly humiliated.

This nano-audience is the biggest splashiest story Brandy has made since inadvertently killing someone in a car accident. (Same thing happened to Laura Bush, I believe). Other posters are correct, in that there are several of today’s entertainers who would have eaten that humble pie and given the nano-audience a great show that would be ‘talked about’ for all the right reasons. Unless that publicist or agent is family, they’re probably scrambling right now to find a new job before Ms Brandy gets back in town looking everywhere for them.

Why bring Laura Bush into it?

Yep, yep, and yup! Great link, thanks for sharing!! I always thought Prince was an interesting talent, bit eccentric, a little out there but the man could make the guitar sing!

Lyrics were definitely unique to say the least,

I said now, overcast days never turned me on But something about the clouds and her mixed.....The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof And the horses wonder who u are

And the horses wonder who you are....lol!
